AboutWhat does the meme depict?

The meme 'Look What They Need to Mimic a Fraction of Our Power' features a still from the animated series *Invincible*, specifically from a scene where the character Omni-Man, who is in his superhero suit, disdainfully compares the abilities of humans to superhumans while referencing a pair of fighter jets. The meme typically juxtaposes Omni-Man's arrogant comment with an image or scenario highlighting an excessive or elaborate effort to achieve something relatively minor, underlining the overkill.

OriginWho did it first?

The phrase "Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power" originates from the Amazon Prime Original animated series *Invincible*. In the eighth episode of the first season, which aired on April 29, 2021, there is a dramatic confrontation between Omni-Man and his son Invincible. During this encounter, to emphasize the disparity between their superhuman powers and human capabilities, Omni-Man gestures towards a pair of fighter jets while delivering the line. The meme was first introduced on May 1, 2021, by Redditor @Merlo_24 who posted an image macro of the scene to the subreddit r/BokuNoMetaAcademia. The meme features Omni-Man and uses this moment to humorously compare different power levels, often in completely unrelated contexts. The scene from *Invincible* can be viewed here on Youtube.^[1]
